They have the tag [nobreathe]. Do they actually drown? The alternate method of fighting them with drowning rooms doesn't seem like it would work. Do stone fall traps work? I've captured one so I guess I can experiment. I just thought my experiments might go quicker if someone already knew. So far the fire man is doing just fine being underwater. It's fellow cellmates (goblins) all drown (and were beaten badly by the fire man as they drown) & the water level in there is 7/7.

:The tag <tt>[NOBREATHE]</tt> means that the creature does not need to breathe - all lava-swimming entities need this to be able to traverse the entire tube. Otherwise they'd drown. So they won't drown. Also, there is no strangling a creature with <tt>[NOBREATHE]</tt>, nor can you make it winded by puncturing its lungs. --[[User:GreyMario|GreyMaria]] 21:59, 28 September 2008 (EDT) | :The tag <tt>[NOBREATHE]</tt> means that the creature does not need to breathe - all lava-swimming entities need this to be able to traverse the entire tube.

I am a little confused about the fourth step in stopping fire men from attacking smelters. Could someone put up a diagram of how the walls should "box in the lava squares?"--[[User:Zipdog|Zipdog]] 23:25, 15 April 2009 (UTC) | I am a little confused about the fourth step in stopping fire men from attacking smelters.

− | + | Yeah, I was hoping for a diagram as well when I came to this page. I think it means though to put walls on the side of the channel going up to where the steel bars are and just preventing the fire men from escaping the boxed in area. However, I still can't see how this helps eliminate fire men and beyond that, all of these suggestions for protecting against them seem to result in not being able to use the magma for working.[[User:Shardok|Shardok]] 18:05, 3 August 2009 (UTC) | |
